USB SmartCal Auto Calibration Module (4 Port) MN25418A
The SmartCal MN25418A is a series of 4-port auto calibration units covering a frequency range from 300 kHz to 20 GHz. The MN25418A comes with K(f) connectors on all ports. The MN25418A delivers automatic, fast and convenient multiport calibrations for any ShockLine VNA. The SmartCal automatically powers on via an USB connection and loads calibration kit coefficients from on-board memory into the ShockLine software. The SmartCal is ready to use immediately after detection by the VNA because it doesn't require warm-up.
